<h1>Now it's time to object</h1>

Steve Pound MP and Councillor Ray Wall were amongst the many who turned out to discuss the development proposal for Hanwell Village yesterday evening. 

Over 80 people turned out to discuss this proposal

There was great support from all, including local architect Geoff Mules, who eloquently explained the reasons this planning application should be categorically refused by Ealing Council. Geoff explained that the proposal breaks many of Ealing Council's own planning guidelines including: 

• The number of habitable rooms per hectare (significantly higher than recommended)
• Distance between plots (significantly lower than recommended)
• At least some, may be all of the gardens are of insufficient size 
• Parking allows for limited manoevourablity, certainly an issue for emergency services 
• Parking is highly likely to spill out onto Church Road, which already has parking restrictions over the summer months to accommodate visitors to the Bunny Park. Traffic issues along Church road are likely result

In addition to the above, the proposal also contradicts local and national guidelines regarding conservation areas and back land development. You can read the rest of Geoff's reply below in the comments section. 


Now is the time to Object 
So we have now understood the development proposal and have formed strong opinions based on local and national planning guidelines. It's now time to put all this to good use and raise your objection. It's easy to do, just click here and complete the online form.


Every Objection Counts
There are no limitations about who can object. Every member of your household can object and it's the number of objections that count. Be sure to put your objection in your own words as it will be more powerful than a standard letter. Keep your objection succinct, unemotional and based on the facts. Encourage friends in the local area to do the same. Every objection counts and we are aiming for hundreds.


Anyone who uses the Bunny Park will be affected by this development. The additional of a single track road will be a danger for all that walk to Bunny Park along Church Road.
The increase in traffic and lack of parking will be a constant nuisance.
